Do you ever have a day when you: miss the waste paper basket with every bit of paper; the cat brings in and kills a bird on the carpet you have just hoovered because you have a viewing of your gorgeous house by yet another timewaster who doesn't want a pool or an arena or stables or a big garden or a galley kitchen despiy=te having seen the f****** particulars!!!; when your carefully manicured ziggurat of a muck heap is destroyed by a destructive escapologist of a pony and when, to cap it all, when you have driven a bazillion miles(or so it seems)to Kingston Maurward for a spot of CR and a lesson with your trainer and find that it has been CANCELLED because someone is ill and no, you can't hire the indoor school because there is an exam tomorrow and your poor po is all tacked up and has to be trundled back a gazillion miles and you can't even ride in your own arena because it's dark ....
AND i'm mega moody anyway right now so I need shooting...or alcohol, prob. Funny how the paper bin mishots seemed worth downing a bottle of vodka for at 10am ...ha,ha! little did I know that it could only get worse!
Sorry! Had to get it off my chest!!!
 
Wine.... you need wine. Come join me in drunken forum exploits!

Wine def required.

If it's any consolation I'd LOVE a house with a pool, arena, stables etc - and would even be happy with the destroyed muckheap!

Now to persuade OH and family that what they really want to do is move......

Bottle of wine, HUGE bar of chocolate and a sleeping tablet and all will be well in the morning!! I had a crap day at work so can sympathise! Cat puked up on the landing carpet 3 times at 4am and some plonker drove into my car on Tuesday and today insurance company are saying that I am accepting liability errrr NO!!! run out of wine and chocolate and can't get any as have young kids so can't nip to shop, mores the pity or I would be joining you!!!
 
I'd prescribe wine & chocolate...

The other day, Adrian (the horse) took one look at my freshly perfected muckheap, pulled it all back down & then wee'd on it. Not sure if he was giving me his critical opinion on my efforts...
And when we sold our last house, some mad old bat said that she didn't like... our pet birds or the rabbit!! Errrr, the pets weren't on the fixtures & fittings list...

The lesson thing is soooo annoying. Happened to me with my last trainer, 90 mile round trip... could have killed him with my bare hands. Altho I *was* allowed to use the arena. In the middle of a thunderstorm.
 
Guys! you are great! (which is more than can be said for real guys!!!)
Jen1...cars and insurance eeeeuw! Isn't it weird how one gets a craving for wine and chocolate when both give one the headache from hell??!!!
I AM lucky to have a house with a pool etc etc...and I did it all myself...not crowing but just saying go for it and don't hang about for stuff to happen to you..try to make your own luck.
Ok,ok...I opened a bottle of Prosecco...and put it this way...it isn't going to make it back to the fridge...so it's going for recylcling, which is a good thing, right???
 
Oh and by the way...I didn't down a bottle of vodka this am....
I don't have any and never drink it! Well, that's not true...I have some raspberry vodka maturing in the cupboard under the stairs for next season's hip flask...
Now, I wonder if I can be bovvered to get everything out of that hell-hole of hidden junk ( you know how it is when you are seeling a house..has to look like no-one lives there, except for the smaell of fresh ground coffee from the gaggia and bread baking in the range etc blah blah
